When she first heard Taishi Yan mention herself, a trace of surprise flashed on Ling Qixuan's face, and she looked up to see Lan Junyao's reaction, only to see her lowering her eyebrows, her hands folded in front of her lower abdomen, looking like she had nothing to do with herself and was hanging high.

A sneer flashed in Ling Qixuan's eyes, but he didn't stop Taishi Yan's movements, he only removed the expression on his face and stood still, watching the development of things as if watching a play.

In Lan Junyao's palms, the fingernails of her left hand sank deep into the palm of her right hand, seemingly calm, and there were already big waves in her heart, the purpose of this Yan Taishi was self-evident, it was nothing more than to marry her granddaughter Yan Ruyu to him as a concubine.

Think about it, His Royal Highness has a heavy army, and he usually shows a picture of no quarrel in political affairs, if his granddaughter marries him, not only will his status be noble, but the power of Yan Guifei's family will also rise, and the old fox will fight a good idea.

It's just that with his temperament, how can he easily be at the mercy of others, Lan Junyao reined in his mind and looked forward to the following, seeing that he didn't object to this matter, a wave of sorrow suddenly rose in his heart.

Thinking that he was going to marry her as a concubine, his heart began to hurt. Then he scoffed at his own behavior, in what capacity did you interfere in his marriage?

As soon as the emperor's words fell, a person behind Taishi Yan stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Yan Ruyu, the granddaughter of Taishi Yan, is gentle and graceful, knowledgeable, and reasonable, and can be a model of a woman in the boudoir, and the minister thinks that she is the eighth princess." ”

"I think that Lan Junyao, the daughter of Lan Xiangye, has both virtue and ability, and her demeanor is outstanding, so it is perfect to be the eighth princess. Lan Junyao was stunned, looked up, and saw that the person who spoke was Uncle Zhai who gave jade.

"General Zhai's words are wrong, the world knows that Miss Lan was named Jing'an Xiuyi by His Majesty, and she must be twenty-five years old before she can be married by His Majesty. Another neutral minister retorted.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's ......"

All of a sudden, the Qianyuan Hall was as lively as a vegetable market, and all the ministers expressed their opinions and elected their favorite candidates, among which Lan Junyao and Yan Ruyu were the most famous, and most of them were recommended by people from the two major factions.

The quarrel is getting more and more intense, after all, the eighth princess is a fat poor, and His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness doesn't see which woman he particularly likes on weekdays, they have to compete for this place anyway, if they climb this high branch, won't it be smooth sailing in the future?

The ministers were at a stalemate, and Lan Junyao took advantage of this gap to secretly watch the emperor's every move. Under the cover of the crown, the ministers were not allowed to peep at the emperor's face, but Lan Junyao stood behind the emperor, but he happened to see it clearly.

The originally serious hall became smoky after a while, and the unkindness in the emperor's eyes became more and more obvious, his fingers knocked on the dragon chair again and again, his eyes were faintly circulating, and his thoughts could not be seen.

The civil and military officials still haven't found the same as the emperor, so far, only a few princes and Lan Xiangye, Yan Taishi has not moved, and the person concerned, Ling Qixuan, has a good attitude of watching the show, watching them chatter with interest.

The emperor didn't know what he thought, and the look in his eyes immediately turned sharp, as if he floated past Lan Chengcheng and Zhai Shaoshuai, Lan Junyao naturally saw it in his heart, and secretly said that it was not good, the emperor was afraid that he thought that Daddy and Uncle Zhai were colluding.

At this moment, an official stiffened his neck and said: "Miss Lan's atmosphere is precocious, and her temperament is much better than Miss Yan's, what is the flaw in her appearance, does Lord Li think that the eighth princess should be a woman who serves the lord of Israel?"

The emperor's patience also reached the limit, and he threw it among everyone with a majestic voice, "You Aiqing have been arguing for a long time, but I don't know if there is the best result?"

The ministers, who were still like cockfights, immediately died down, and the quarrel in the hall suddenly stopped. Standing behind the two big heads in an orderly manner, one by one, they were bent over, sweating for their bold actions just now.

"Back to Your Majesty, the ministers think that Miss Yan Ruyu is the most suitable woman. Representatives of Taishi Yan's faction stood up.

"Back to Your Majesty, what do the ministers think ......" Behind Lan Qingcheng, an official from Xiangye's faction also stood up, but he was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Lan Junyao.

Lan Junyao knew that it would be bad for her to let them fight any longer, and she was afraid that even Daddy Cheap and Uncle Zhai would be involved, so she hurriedly lifted her clothes, knelt down in front of the emperor calmly, and slowly bowed down to the emperor, "Jing'an only wants to be able to serve in front of Your Majesty all the time, and Your Majesty should not send me away early." ”

Before the words came out, Lan Junyao only felt a pair of angry eyes behind her shoot straight on her back, and several eyes under the steps saluted her in unison, some of them were good, some were incomprehensible, and some were contradictory...... Even Lan Chengcheng was shocked in her heart, and she didn't understand why she suddenly refused.

Lan Junyao's expression was calm, her apricot eyes were not shocked, the emperor couldn't see any trace of emotion from her eyes, and looked at Lan Junyao kneeling on the ground with a complicated complexion, and there was occasional distress in her eyes, which was fleeting, so fast that people didn't have time to catch it.

The entire Qianyuan Hall fell into a boundless silence for a moment, and no one spoke again. This silence was shocking, and the emperor glanced at Lan Junyao meaningfully, "Why?"

Ling Qixuan at the foot of the steps couldn't help but breathe stagnantly, waiting for Lan Junyao's answer, the moment she said she refused, his heart seemed to be firmly pinched by a big hand, and the blood stopped flowing.

"Back to Your Majesty, Jing'an has been away from home for several years, and it is a pity that he has not been able to fulfill his filial piety to his father's and mother's knees, and Jing'an has only returned for a few months. Besides, the ancestral system has training, and the cultivation ceremony can only be married at the age of twenty-five, and the courtiers do not want to abolish the rules of the ancestors because of me. Lan Junyao's words were earnest.

The emperor's stern eyes warmed slightly, "I know that you are a sensible person, but I have suffered you." ”

The ministers below breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, Lan Tingcheng felt bitter in his heart, he couldn't figure it out, can he not know now?

Ling Qixuan was extremely angry but calmed down, the hand in his sleeve was clenched into a fist, the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out, and his whole body was in a defensive posture. What Lan Chengcheng could think of, he naturally wanted to think of, but how could he be willing in his heart?

Lan Junyao stood in the distance like a wandering corpse, and a voice in her heart kept telling her, "He blames her." It took a long time like this to calm down. She only lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head, and her figure looked so gloomy.
